Hope Springs

This movie was so funny. Although I suppose most Meryl Streep romcoms are quite funny haha. She was the only reason I went in to watch it, and it paid off. Easy (predictable), feel good story, Tommy Lee Jones rocked it as a grumpy middle-aged man!! Ah Meryl, queen of the silver screen.

Dredd

Aiyah. I’d read so many good reviews about Dredd, and went in with quite the wrong expectations!! Anyway. It was a good movie, I just wish I hadn’t seen Raid: Redemption. Waaaay too similar, but R:R was done much better *sigh* I suppose it’s a different type of action film – one’s realistic action (so to speak) and the other is futuristic action, but to me, the futuristic action just seemed like watered down Hollywood action. Sadly.

Oh well. I would’ve regretted not seeing it, so it’s a good thing I did I guess…

More Downton Abbey

Season two, done!! I heart Maggie Smith. Dame Maggie Smith?? She has the absolute best lines, and delivers with exactly the right tone and pace. I laughed out loud several times despite myself. Hahaha. So… should I start on season three, or should I wait until it’s all done and go on a marathon?!

Downton Abbey

Season one, done. So darn good hahah!!!

Issues.

So many issues in my life to deal with. Tsk tsk tsk.

Perks of Being a Wallflower

Such a great film. And such awesome music. Yay David Bowie!! And a whole host of other wonderful tunes. And it was so, so funny. Except most of the time I was laughing alone in the cinema. Ah, Hong Kong crowds… C’est la vie!

I love spontaneously watching films. Makes me so happy. Yay.

Happy birthday bro!!

Yayyyyy!!!

Public holiday madness

I like working public holidays. It means I don’t have to deal with the crowds… Yeah.

Baker & Spice

195 Anfu Lu, Xujiahui, Shanghai. Awesomeness.

Ahhhh I love Shanghai. And I miss my man. The man who is no longer mine… Hai. In other news, that bakery is awesome, and walking along the tree-lined streets in Shanghai refreshes my soul. I love. Yup.

Love… and breakups.

Drinks with an old friend today, and found out she and her husband are getting divorced… I know them both, and to me, it’s just sad. I know they got married because they got pregnant, but I don’t know. It’s sad. Love solves all problems until selfishness pushes through. And then love can’t solve anything, because love for the self comes first. Rah.

It’s sad. But there’s nothing I can do about anything. Except be there.

*sigh*
